The California Winners: Corporate Power
LOS ANGELES — You can't fool all the people all the time, only about 48 percent. That, rather than the triumph of women billionaires, may be the abiding lesson of California's spring elections this year. Yes, Meg Whitman, formerly of eBay, showed that you can win a Republican primary for governor by spending about $80 a voter. And Carly Fiorina, formerly of Hewlett-Packard, showed that it could be done for only $20 a voter in the same party's Senate primary. Interesting, maybe a corporate takeover of government, but hardly new or surprising. More interesting this year was the defeat of……Continue Reading The California Winners: Corporate Power
